2011-12 NBA on ABC Schedule

The 2011-12 NBA season is finally about to get underway. I expect TSN, Sportsnet, NBA TV Canada and theScore’s schedules to come out soon. Until then, here is ABC’s schedule. First, a press release from ESPN about ABC’s coverage.

ABC will tip off the season with a doubleheader on Christmas Day opening with a blockbuster doubleheader – a Finals rematch when the reigning NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks and Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki host the Miami Heat and All-Stars LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh on Sunday, Dec. 25, at 2:30 p.m. ET, followed by the Chicago Bulls and league MVP Derrick Rose visiting the Los Angeles Lakers and perennial All-Star Kobe Bryant at 5 p.m. The NBA Countdown pregame show will preview the ABC doubleheader at 2 p.m.
